Denver Nuggets depth chart: Projecting starters, backups for 2025-26 season
After completing several offseason roster moves, the Denver Nuggets enter the 2025-26 season projected to be one of the front-runners to win the NBA championship.
The Nuggets got started by acquiring Cam Johnson from the Brooklyn Nets for Michael Porter Jr. and a first-round pick. The front office also sent Dario Šarić to the Sacramento Kings for center Jonas Valančiūnas, while signing Bruce Brown Jr. and Tim Hardaway Jr.
Behind their additions, the Nuggets currently have the fourth-highest title odds (plus-750), trailing only the Oklahoma City Thunder (plus-275) in the Western Conference. The group enters its first year under David Adelman, who was promoted to full-time head coach on May 22.
With the team opening training camp on Sept. 30, Rookie Wire examined the Nuggets’ depth chart and offered an early projection of the starters and backups entering the season.

Von Miller lobbying Broncos to bring him back (here’s the latest update)
Von Miller has made it abundantly clear that he would like to return to the Denver Broncos and finish his career where it started. Miller has made that fact known at every possible opportunity, including a Von’s Vision charity event on Wednesday.
“I would love to bring back those Super Bowl 50 vibes, love to assist, to be the vice president to Bo Nix, to Courtland Sutton,” Miller said. “I’ve been the guy and also I’ve been the vice president as well. I would love to contribute to us getting back to the glory land, to holding up that trophy.”
Miller went on to note that he has lobbied coach Sean Payton to sign him (Payton coached Miller at a flag football tournament earlier this year).
Unfortunately for Miller, it sounds like there are no plans for a potential reunion with his old club. The Denver Post‘s Luca Evans reported that “as of last week,” there have been no talks between the Broncos and Miller’s representatives about a potential contract.
With a crowded outside linebacker room, Denver seems unlikely to re-sign Miller, but the 37-year-old pass rusher said he will “for sure” play in 2026. After totaling nine sacks with the Washington Commanders last fall, Miller will probably be able to find a home as a rotational pass rusher, but it might not be with the Broncos.

Denver Summit FC delays opening of Centennial Stadium, will play next 2 home games at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park
Denver Summit FC will play their next two home games at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.
Colorado’s first professional women’s soccer team was hoping to be at their new training facility in Centennial by July, but team says recent rain delayed construction, so they need to push back by two weeks.
That means their July 3 and July 12 matches will be at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City.
Summit FC is hopeful to be at their stadium in Centennial for their July 18 game against the Portland Thorns.
Centennial Stadium will ultimately become Summit’s training facility. They’ll play their games there until 2028, when they hope to move into their official home stadium at the Santa Fe Yards at Broadway and I-25. The Santa Fe Yards stadium will have room for more than 14,000 fans.

Denver Fashion Week Responds To Community Demand With Second Model Audition Date – 303 Magazine
Following overwhelming demand from aspiring models across Colorado, Denver Fashion Week (DFW) has announced a second round of model auditions for its upcoming Fall/Winter 2026 runway season.
According to DFW, the organization received a large number of emails and social media messages from models hoping for another opportunity to audition after the initial model auditions on May 17.
In response, DFW will host an additional audition date on August 9, giving fresh talent another chance to join one of Denver’s biggest fashion platforms.
